Abstract :The IOT based energy meter is based on Arduino. This system eliminates the human involvement in electricity maintenance. The theft of electricity increases the costs paid by customers. Hence this system is used for the detection of theft. The energy meter is connected to the Arduino. The Arduino checks the main meter and sub meter reading. If the difference between the main meter and sub meter is occurred then the message that theft has occurred will be displayed on the LCD display as well as on the thingspeak. The comparison between the main meter and sub meter reading is used to check the theft status. Customer can be access the thingspeak from anywhere on the globe at the anytime using the consumer number. Hence the customer can be easily access their energy usage.

Keywords :IoT, Arduino Uno, Energy meter, LCD Display, current sensor
